management now exceed $1 billion as it nears its 10 th year anniversary.


For Fund III, Wavecrest received strong support from both its existing investor base of leading pension funds,

top-tier institutional investors. In addition, more than 50 current and former portfolio CEOs and Operating
Advisors of Wavecrest also invested in the fund, reflecting their endorsement of Wavecrest’s strategy,
collaborative approach, and operational value-add.

strong vote of confidence from our current and prior portfolio CEOs and Operating Advisors,” commented Deepak
Sindwani and Vaibhav Nalwaya, Co-Founders and Managing Partners. “Our investment approach and strategy
have stayed consistent since the start of the firm almost a decade ago, and we are excited to continue similarly
with Fund III. Our sector focus and collaborative approach, and our ongoing investments in the Wavecrest
Operating Platform help make Wavecrest a true partner to entrepreneurs”.


Since its founding, Wavecrest has focused exclusively on partnering with founder-led, capital-efficient high growth

Wavecrest have built market leaders in multiple verticals, including Impel (automotive AI software), BigTime
